Description
Many of us do not know the histories and stories of the people listed in the genealogy of Jesus, which is read every year on the Sunday before Christmas. Would it shock you to learn that Christ’s ancestors included people who committed murder, adultery, and prostitution? If we examine the stories of the people in the genealogy of Jesus, we may find that they resonate with our own complex and even messy family histories.
The GOA Center for Family Care invites you to use this small group guide with the hope that learning more about these biblical figures will encourage all of us to experience more deeply the redeeming love of Jesus this Advent & Nativity season.
